    Default Light Turning Red While Crossing The Intersection in Massachusetts

    Does anyone know the policy on the light turning red while crossing the intersection in Massachusetts?

    Also, I got a citation for this the other day, and there are two offences listed. The first is 89-9, which I discovered online is the red light violation.
    The second is A3 S3, and I can't figure out what that refers to. Does anyone have any ideas?

    The second citation may be to a local ordinance.

    thanks, Aaron.

    is there a resource to look up local ordinances? the reason I'm asking is that the assessment for the 89-9 citation is "W" which I take to mean warning, and the assessment for the A3 S3 citation is $50. I'd be happy to pay the $50 if I don't get points, but I'm not sure if I'll get points because I don't know what the citation is. The police officer was very closed-mouthed during the whole process and would not answer any of my questions, so now I'm left wondering what the charge is.

    Check the website for the unit of government which issued the ticket.
